Abstract

Several studies highlight the significance of an anthropomorphic mass and length distribution in robot design. Based on these ideas, a bio-inspired humanoid robot is designed, with the aim of approaching human capabilities. The RH5 Pedes whole body robot is presented, its mechanical and electrical design choices are detailed and justified. As a use case, walking motions are computed using the optimal control method then presented in simulation. Afterwards, these trajectories are stabilized online using the whole-body control approach. The methods and obtained results are discussed, suggesting improvement axes for future work.
